Colten Boushie documentary examines history of racism, oppression on the Prairies


Documentary filmmaker Tasha Hubbard didn’t know Colten Boushie, but when she heard about the killing of the young Indigenous man it was all she could think about. It’s like, ‘Is that really how we’re viewed?’” Hubbard ended up making a personal documentary about the case. The film will also screen at the DOXA Documentary Film Festival in Vancouver, which runs May 2 to 12. But Hubbard said she wasn’t close with the Boushie family before making the doc. She had just finished the acclaimed documentary Birth of a Family and was busy with that, she noted.
